This guide will show you how to deploy a smart contract on the Taiko Jolnir L2 testnet.

Before we get started, you might be wondering why we're deploying a smart contract on the Taiko Jolnir L2 testnet. The reason is that it could help you with the Taiko airdrop.

Here's the deal with the Jolnir L2 testnet: it can reward you for doing specific tasks, which in turn boosts your chances of qualifying for the airdrop. And the best part is, it won't cost you a dime to participate.

To ensure you don't miss out on this opportunity, we've put together a step-by-step guide on putting a smart contract on the Taiko Jolnir L2 testnet.

✅ Steps to take before diving into deploying a smart contract:

1. Add Taiko Jolnir L2 testnet to Metamask

2. Get ETH on Sepolia

3. Bridge ETH from Sepolia to Taiko

If you have already completed these steps, you can skip them; otherwise:

• Add Taiko Jolnir L2 testnet to Metamask using this link 👇

• Get ETH on Sepolia using this link 👇

• Bridge ETH from Sepolia to Taiko Jolnir L2 using this link 👇

📃 Now let’s deploy a smart contract:

• Go to OpenZeppelin. OpenZeppelin is a popular open-source framework for writing secure and scalable smart contracts in the Solidity programming language.

• Enter the name of the smart contract, symbol, and premint amount. Feel free to enter any random values as they do not significantly impact the process.

• Now click on the “Compile” button 👇

• If there are no errors, you will see a green checkmark 👇

• Now go to the deployment page 👇

• Select the 'Injected Provider' option from the environment options menu, and then proceed to click on the 'Deploy' button 👇

• Confirm the transaction when prompted 👇

After a successful transaction, your deployed contract will be visible in the bottom left corner of the page 👇

If you have reached this step, congratulations!!! 🎉

You have successfully deployed a smart contract on the Taiko Jolnir L2 testnet.

Now if you want to check the smart contract on Explorer, simply copy the contract address as shown below 👇

Go to the Taiko Explorer and search for the contract address 👇
